  • Temperature
    Measure of the hotness or coldness of an object, corresponds to the kinetic energy of the molecules
  • Heat
    Flow of energy from one object to another due to temperature differences
  • Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, it can only be transformed from one type to another
  • Heat will always flow spontaneously from objects with higher temperature to those with lower temperature unless acted upon by an external force
  • Heat flow
    From higher temperature to lower temperature
  • Phase
    • Physically distinctive form of matter that classifies it as solid, liquid, or gas
  • Melting
    Solid to liquid phase change due to heat absorption (endothermic)
  • Evaporation
    Liquid to gas phase change due to heat absorption (endothermic)
  • Condensation
    Gas to liquid phase change due to heat release (exothermic)
  • Freezing
    Liquid to solid phase change due to heat release (exothermic)
  • Deposition
    Gas to solid phase change due to heat release (exothermic)
  • Sublimation
    Solid to gas phase change due to heat absorption (endothermic)
  • When heat flows into matter- (endothermic)
  • When heat flows out of matter- (exothermic)
